DWRITE_FONT_FAMILY_MODEL enumeration (dwrite_3.h)

  • Article

Defines constants that specify how font families are grouped together. Used by IDWriteFontCollection2, for example.

Syntax

typedef enum DWRITE_FONT_FAMILY_MODEL {
  DWRITE_FONT_FAMILY_MODEL_TYPOGRAPHIC,
  DWRITE_FONT_FAMILY_MODEL_WEIGHT_STRETCH_STYLE
} ;

Constants

 
DWRITE_FONT_FAMILY_MODEL_TYPOGRAPHIC
Families are grouped by the typographic family name preferred by the font author. The family can contain as many faces as the font author wants. This corresponds to DWRITE_FONT_PROPERTY_ID_TYPOGRAPHIC_FAMILY_NAME.
DWRITE_FONT_FAMILY_MODEL_WEIGHT_STRETCH_STYLE
Families are grouped by the weight-stretch-style family name, where all faces that differ only by those three axes are grouped into the same family, but any other axes go into a distinct family. For example, the Sitka family with six different optical sizes yields six separate families (Sitka Caption, Display, Text, Subheading, Heading, Banner...). This corresponds to DWRITE_FONT_PROPERTY_ID_WEIGHT_STRETCH_STYLE_FAMILY_NAME.
